Chapter 834: Chapter 819: Enhance Strength, Killing Resumes!

Border Wasteland Region.

The great battle between the War Masters of the Gu Yuan Tribe and the Blood Faint Noble Family shook the multitudes of warriors in the Border Wasteland Region immeasurably. For the vast majority of their human kin, a grand melee involving a million War Masters was something they had never truly experienced, not to mention battle against the Blood Clan.

"We’ve held them off!"

"The Gu Yuan Tribe has slaughtered the Blood Clan’s elite War Masters, may the heavens bless our Border Wasteland!"

"A million-strong War Masters’ conquest, slaughtering hundreds of thousands of Blood Clan Soldiers in one battle, how I wish I could have joined such a bloodbath!"

The Heavenly River Space is very mysterious, seemingly without the distinction of day and night, but the Border Wasteland Region has already plunged into darkness. The Heavenly River, like a silver jade belt, stretches across the Sky Vault, twinkling with silver brilliance.

But then again, even if it were night, how many could fall asleep?

Some warriors also saw that the Gu Yuan Tribe’s victory was built on the lives of tens of thousands of their tribespeople—a victory mixed with blood and flesh!

The Heavenly River stained with blood, the long journey of conquest is just beginning!

Ancestral Court.

"To gamble one’s life for another’s." A hoarse voice sounded, it was Elder Ming He’s, carrying a hint of helplessness.

"For the Gu Yuan Tribe, the real test is what comes next. With tens of thousands of years at their disposal, the Blood Faint Noble Family’s rise in strength is beyond imagination."

"Let’s hope so." Several voices rose in succession, filled with hope, yet also worry.

Deep in the Ancient Forest.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Mist rose and the sounds of battle were incessant. Tian Fang, leading more than five hundred of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s warriors with the help of the Eight-directional Illusion Vanquishing Array, was at a deadlock with the thousands of Blood Race Soldiers led by the Blood Clan’s commander.

Not only that, beside this Blood Clan commander, another commander of the Blood Clan appeared, and at this moment, they were not in the disarray of fierce battle, but rather, their faces twisted with ferocity.

"Commander Jie, our lord has ordered us to gather the scattered soldiers from our defeated guards, strike back at the warriors of the human race, and even hold them off. Of course, if we can turn around and rout them, it would be even better!"

"Our lord’s Imperial Command must, of course, be obeyed. The lives of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of my Blood Faint Noble Family need the fresh blood of these lowly humans to wash away their dishonor!"

The commander who first clashed with Tian Fang of the Blood Clan was Commander Jie.

"Overlord Zhou, you are one of the few among our commanders who understand the Formation Method. Can this grand array before us be broken? These humans thought they could turn the tables on themselves by trapping themselves in the array, luring our warriors into it. Now, there have already been several teams of a hundred of our valiant Blood Race warriors who have fallen into this mist!"

"This array is a human’s Profound-Order Array Method. Not to mention the ordinary soldiers below, even if we enter, there’s a risk of falling!"

What!

"Hmph, are we to let them rampage unchallenged? I, as a commander, may not understand the Formation Method, but I know it requires energy to sustain. Two hours have already passed, and I refuse to believe that this array can hold out much longer!"

"No need to worry, Commander Jie. This mere human-set Profound-Order grand array, watch me break it from the outside!" Immediately, Overlord Zhou’s eyes flashed with a ferocious smile. Blood-colored palms circulating, a blood-colored compass appeared in his hand.

Weng weng weng!

Accompanied by the appearance of this Blood Compass, a rich blood color began to waft out, instantly turning into a blood-colored whirlpool tornado, sweeping towards the misty mass in front of it.

The Eight-directional Illusion Vanquishing Array set up by Tian Fang was immense, enveloping even the surrounding rocks and ancient trees, spanning thousands of feet. Although it was merely a grand illusion array with no formidable offensive power, it was enough for Tian Fang and his five hundred-plus warriors to rely on while slaying the Blood Race Soldiers. It was precisely because of the array that they had killed hundreds of Blood Race Soldiers without receiving a scratch.

"This is bad!" The moment the blood-colored mist rushed into the grand array, Tian Fang inwardly cursed, as the blood-colored mist began to corrode the fog created by the array. If the mist were completely corroded, the array would be nothing but a shell.

"Once you get the chance, make a break for it and let the nearby Gu Yuan Tribe Soldiers who are tasked with clearing out the Blood Clan know to come and reinforce us." Tian Fang pulled a young warrior to his side and instructed him.

But in the next moment, he said, "No, that’s not right. We’ve been trapped by the Blood Clan for an hour or two, and there’s been fighting—surely the many soldiers of our Gu Yuan Tribe in the vicinity would have noticed."

"No need to seek reinforcements. You go back to the tribe and tell them about the current situation in the Ancient Forest."

Finally, a glint of determination appeared in Tian Fang’s eyes as he once again spoke to the young warrior.

Ten miles away from the Bronze Ancient City, a figure covered in blood raced towards the Ancient City.

Inside the Great Hall.

"Elders, do not forget that the Gu Yuan Tribe is facing a Blood Clan Family with tens of thousands of years of heritage, the depth of which can only be imagined. Today’s battle was nothing more than an intense first encounter upon entering the Heavenly River Space, hence the eruption of such a great war,"

Xiao Chen’s voice once again resounded throughout the Great Hall, where a clan extermination war, unless there’s a significant disparity between the two sides, would inevitably result in a stalemate.

"However, in the next few days of this buffer period, the Blood Darkness Tribe, relying on tens of thousands of years of heritage, if they wish to enhance their strength, it will definitely surpass our expectations. Therefore, our Gu Yuan Tribe also needs to immediately enhance our strength."

Even if Xiao Chen did not say it, these elders of the Gu Yuan Tribe clearly understood the enormity of what they were facing, with tens of thousands of years of accumulation, which filled their hearts with apprehension.

"Now then, Elders, our Gu Yuan Tribe can already make use of the essence of the sea of blood above and has the support of a Herb Secret Realm, even if the Blood Faint Noble Family has tens of thousands of years of heritage, we of the Gu Yuan Tribe shall not fear!"

"Grand Elder, gather all the Tribe Warriors who have attained the Blood Refining Realm Perfection within our tribe,"

"Yes!"

Without any intention to delay further, Xiao Chen, whose Gu Yuan Tribe had no shortage of warriors at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm, was now ready to make use of the miraculous essence of the sea of blood above.

"For this incursion upon the Blood Clan Sky Island, just take turns sending out Battle Array Masters."

"Yes!"

Ding Shan’s voice rose, and although the Tribal Warriors forming the Battle Array Masters had suffered losses due to exhaustion, the tribe still had five reserve teams of Ten Thousand War Masters, constantly maintaining the full complement of Battle Array Masters, allowing normal operation.

"May I report, Patriarch, there is news from the war soldiers assigned to exterminate the Remnant of the Blood Clan!" Just as Xiao Chen was about to speak again, his brow suddenly furrowed, and an elder of the tribe approached, accompanied by a young Warrior.

"Greetings, Patriarch and Elders."

"There’s no need for formalities. How goes the battle? Why such disarray? Surely nothing unforeseen has occurred!" Seeing the blood-stained, battle-worn state of the Warrior entering the Great Hall, the Grand Elder hurriedly inquired.

"Patriarch, Elders, under the lead of our War Masters, we entered the Ancient Forest to rout the defeated Blood Clan Soldiers. At first, they were collapsing like a landslide, desperately fleeing for their lives. Therefore, under the command of Lord Huang Xiaotian, our force charged deep into their ranks, continually slaughtering the retreating Blood Clan Soldiers."

"But then, for some reason, these Blood Race Soldiers, who had been utterly lacking in fighting spirit, began to gather with purpose and even launched counterattacks under the remaining commanders. Sensing something awry, Lord Huang issued orders for his subordinates to return to the tribe and report."

"They began to gather with purpose and counterattack,"

spoke the many Elders in the Great Hall in a subdued tone.

"Patriarch, this indicates that the Blood Clan has started to reorganize from scattered troops and is beginning to restore order. It seems Blood Faint Noble Family has dispatched reinforcements to rally these defeated soldiers!"

Just then, from outside the Great Hall, came the sound of hurried footsteps, and shortly thereafter, several figures entered the Great Hall.

"May I report, Patriarch, Elders, there is news from the war soldiers tasked with rooting out the Remnant of the Blood Clan."

The several newcomers to the Great Hall were similarly dust-covered, carrying the scent of blood.

"No need for formalities, quickly inform the Patriarch of the situation you’ve brought," the Grand Elder said, interrupting their salutations.

"May I report, Patriarch, Lord Jian Jinghong has sent back a message that new Blood Race Soldiers have entered the Ancient Forest, seemingly with the intent of counterattacking our Gu Yuan Tribe."

"May I report, Patriarch, Lord Tian Fang led more than five hundred Tribal Warriors, relying on a large Array in the depths of the Ancient Forest, and has engaged with an organized group of Blood Clan Soldiers."

"May I report, Patriarch, Overlord Xiaoxian discovered several Blood Clan Commanders appearing in the depths of the Ancient Forest, with many scattered Blood Clan Soldiers already beginning to regroup. He requests that our tribe dispatch more soldiers for the conquest!"

After waving his hand to dismiss these war soldiers bearing news to rest, Xiao Chen’s gaze swept the Great Hall, and he then spoke again, "Elders, the Blood Clan has begun to rally their soldiers, and instead of retreating to the Sky Island, they wish to launch a counter invasion. What are your thoughts?"

"Patriarch, unless the Blood Clan intends to mount another conquest deep within this Ancient Forest."

"Patriarch, by all accounts, our two tribes have just endured a bloody battle and need time to recuperate and begin enhancing our strength. Yet, the Blood Clan is doing the opposite, sending a large number of soldiers into the depths of the Ancient Forest. If they were just gathering the scattered soldiers to return to the Sky Island, it would be normal. However, now they are continually dispatching Commander-level Strong Ones to lead the Blood Race Soldiers in counterattacking our Gu Yuan Tribe, which is quite peculiar."

"I believe the Blood Clan cannot tolerate the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of their soldiers, so they wish to retaliate against our Gu Yuan Tribe."

Many elders of the Gu Yuan Tribe presented their thoughts, while Xiao Chen remained silent, listening to the multitude of elders’ discussions.

"Alright, Elders, to be cautious, Blood Fiend Elder, Elder Fengyu, you two personally enter the Ancient Forest to investigate the situation."

After a long while, Xiao Chen finally spoke. Regardless of the decision, the life and death of the entire tribe was at stake, and no decision could be made rashly.

"Proceed as previously discussed, continue to harass the Blood Clan Sky Island and enhance the strength of the Tribe Warriors!"

Shortly thereafter, the entire Gu Yuan Tribe began to operate once again, as two figures disappeared into the Ancient Forest on either side of the Bronze Ancient City.
